Hello! I’ve been struggling with a formula and am hoping for some help.
I have an $Invoice field, a $Paid field, and I’d like to have a Difference field (i.e., show $0 if a client paid their invoice in full, or show the balance due if an invoice is short-paid. I would also like the difference field to be blank if there is nothing in the $Paid field… that’s where I’m struggling.
Any suggestions?
Try this:
IF({$Paid}=BLANK(), BLANK(), {$Invoice} - {$Paid})That worked! Thanks so much!
That worked! Thanks so much!
IF({$Paid},{$Invoice}-{$Paid}) will work as well. It takes advantage of a couple of Airtable shortcuts:
IF({Field},...) is an implicit test for {Field} != BLANK().IF() statement whose test evaluates to false but lacks a second (‘ELSE’) branch returns BLANK().IF({$Paid},{$Invoice}-{$Paid}) will work as well. It takes advantage of a couple of Airtable shortcuts:
